Thought of the Day
Posted in: Events, Faith, Idenity| Can there be any room for a centrist at a health care reform town hall meeting |
I’ve heard about these “Town Hall Meetings” and seen how they’ve been sensationalized by both sides but when I see this I just have to ask: What is wrong with people?
I’m not sure what is going on with the kind of fervor behind these outbursts. We may disagree with people but to tear someone apart because you can begs to ask a much bigger question. I can’t say this is really about “politics”, in fact I think “politics” is a flimsy facade that many folks are simply hiding behind. Healthcare and Economic stimulus’ aside, part of me wonders if the prices of reality TV and the readily accessible information (opinions) that live on the web are finally taking their toll on us.
It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.

Where did you find that guy’s video?! Luckily, it looks like no one (except visitors to your blog) will be listening to his “anything those people are for, I’m against” drivel.
And it’s good to have you blogging again.
It’s good to be back, thanks Cole.
While I do think his commentary is… lacking in merit, the overall issue I had with the video was the lack of civility during the entire affair; it’s like a Jerry Springer show.
I loved this!! I am a Centrist and I am surrounded by HARD CORE Republicans and let me tell you, Health Care is NOT something we can discuss. It is Apocalypse now as far as they are concerned. I KNOW this is accurate. I liked what he had to say.
